I want to do a small version of midi keyboard

[Frantick]

Hi i want to do mini version of midi-keyboard, just couple of switches ex. 10 and nothing more no LED display for program and this kinda stuff.  I explain maybe for more understanding :d when i push 1 swith florboard send via midi information that key was presed and change some append to this key instruction (ex. on/off some effect ) just like in standard midi keyboard but i want to this in a smaller version packed in case that handle step on key coz i will pres button by my leg so midi keyboard havevs quite smal key  to do this . I will be very aprichiate if some one will give me some schematic, tip ect. how to build this. It will be very good if it can be done without programing ( iam sux in this, and don't have any programator ), my friend tells me that it posibly. He say some about matrix 3x3 for switch that will be send signal to converter and him send to comp. midi information

I'd prefer the MBHP PCBs (http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp.html).

You only want to use 10 buttons, so why do you want to use a PCB for 64 buttons (as the Romna Krause design)?

1 Core and 1 DINx2 is enough for your design.

and i have another question: can u tell me how to  put button into this ?

Just connect them to the DIN PCB as described on the DIN page (http://www.ucapps.de/mbhp_din.html).
